The Tea Party: Jell-O Dippin’

January 11th, 2009 @ 10:30 am by Mrs. Green Tea

Mr. & Mrs.!

I love this 3-photo series, captioned is our actual conversation at that moment:

“Yay! We did it!”

“Oh, and hey…”

“I saw you cryyyy!”
“I don’t cry, I work out!”

And then it was time for the long walk on gravel with train, in heels, (not recommended) towards portraitville:

Our group pics are not exciting (we’re not exactly, ehh, picture people). I’m sparing you all from the super boring group shots, but here is a quick glance:

I had really reeeaaallly looked forward to the vogue shot, unfortunately most of us are not vogue material. A red light should really have come on when my MOH declared that we needed not to worry because her panties matched that day.

See what I mean? It doesn’t get much more awkward than these two! Except maybe…

… us! While others dip like smooth guacamole, I dip mo’ like a bowl of Jell-O. Have you tried dipping in a bowl of Jell-O? ’Nuf said. Witness the stiffness of FAIL Blog caliber.

The boys did a tad better with me out of the way.

A side view of the inevitable ’line up’ family portraits.

Well, at least one of us knows how to strike a pose!

It’s safe to say I prefer the candids. However, since group portraits are pretty much standard at weddings, what are your favorite ways to spice them up?

I thought the dipped looked great! At least you didn’t fall down!! I really like the dip where all of your wedding party has their hands up in the air! Such a cool shot!

I love the recap of your conversation. And I think posed shots are still great!

I’m sure my dip will be much scarier…I’ll probably end up in the dirt!

A dip works as long as you don’t fall. I can’t even imagine. I think the trick to a dip is your facical expression and not looking worried. I think Travis did a great job with your group shots of staggering people instead of just lining people up.
